Solved Failed to rename files/nfo
#1
I'm on Mac OS X and when I try to rename/cleanup files I'm getting the message "Failed to rename: Destination XXXXXX already exists" unless I add / remove one or more letters to the title.

Here are some situations in which the bug always happen:

When I just want to change some letters from small to capital on the movie title
When I just want to change sort title
When I just want to change film's movieset

Which happen to be most of the changes I usually do...

Please, any solution? Restarting TTM does nothing. The only way I see by now is adding one letter to the title of every movie I need to change, rename it and then remove that letter to see my files and folder change...

Thanks.

could you please send a bug report (Contact - send bug report) from within tmm after you tried to rename?
I cannot reproduce the issue here..

finally I found the problem:

Windows (NTFS) and OSX (HFS+) have a case insensitive filesystem (on OSX there is an option to make it case sensitive, but some users like you might have the case insensitive version).
This causes a check to fail, where e.g.

THE MATRIX.AVI equals The Matrix.avi and thus we do not rename.

the checks have been enhanced for the next version!
